I have a deployment server. There are 2 serverclasses with multiple and different machine name.
how can i add different machine names in serverclass.conf. I am doing like:

[serverClass:A]
whitelist.1 = mahcine1, machine2

[serverClass:B]
whitelist.1 = mahcine3, machine4

The problem is that when I provide following and apps are being deployed on all the machines.
[serverClass:A:app:winevt]
stateOnClient=enabled
restartSplunkd=true

Try using;
whitelist.0 = machine1
whitelist.1 = machine2
whitelist.2 = machine*

or you can try to use the new UI for "forwarder management" in Splunk 6* So you dont need to edit the files and therefor not risking to break , or do other miss-configurations ... the ui for "forwarder managment" is better then you think ... (even thou somewhat limited)
